Friend, I'm Susheela Jayapal, Multnomah County Commissioner, in
Portland, Oregon.

We all know the upcoming national election will be one of the most
consequential of our time. Like most of you, I have been thinking about
who I will support, and why.

My choice has been between Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren. I voted
for Bernie in 2016, and continue to admire and appreciate his fierce
advocacy for Medicare for All and much more.

But 2020 is not 2016. In 2020, I’m with Warren. We need bold policy and
advocacy -- and we also need a president who can actually govern. A
president who understands and can operate the levers of influence. A
president with the skills and temperament to push, to pull, to exercise
power and to build power around her.

Elizabeth Warren is that president.

Elizabeth Warren has clearly demonstrated the intellect and vision to
develop bold policy. But she also shows that policy is more than an
intellectual exercise for her. She feels, deeply and authentically, the
individual struggles experienced by working people, and connects those
struggles to the structural inequities and power imbalances that permeate
our economic system. She understands and feels, deeply, the structural
racism that permeates all our systems, and has put racial justice front
and center in all her policy proposals -- from criminal justice to housing
to combatting the climate crisis.

And she has also demonstrated the skill, the toughness, and the resilience
to actually implement policy. Without any previous experience in federal
government, Warren muscled through the creation of the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau, in the face of staunch opposition from the Republicans
and pushback from the Obama administration as well. She is both steadfast
to her broad vision and flexible enough to incorporate other ideas and
opinions.

In the words of the Des Moines Register, which, on the eve of the Iowa
primaries, has endorsed Warren:

“Elizabeth Warren is the president this nation needs.”

Thanks for being a bold progressive.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told PCCC members, "The majority of Americans are with us on the policies. Americans support Medicare for All, expanding Social Security benefits, gun reform, debt-free college, and a $15 minimum wage. Bold progressive values are popular EVERYWHERE. Together, we have the people. Together, with your help, we’ll have the votes." Chip in $3 here: [link removed]
